Eight months after losing her husband Dennis, Carol believed the hardest part of grief was learning how to live in a quiet house without him. One spring morning, however, she discovered another painful loss waiting for her. The garage door stood open, and Dennis’s beloved 1967 Shelby GT500—his pride and joy after twenty years of careful restoration—was gone. Soon after, her son Brian arrived with his wife Vanessa and admitted he had sold the car for only fifteen thousand dollars to help fund an expensive trip to Paris. Carol was heartbroken, not because of the money, but because the car carried decades of memories, dreams, and promises Dennis had hoped to share with his during retirement.
